This series has taken a really nice shape, got nothing to complain code
wise and works as expected!
Tested:
- several input stream variations, via pipe and command substitution
- restores produce the same byte stream as the input data
- char devices and pts are not allowed
- reading from /dev/stdin is not allowed to be duplicated
- subsequent backups work without issues
- backup and restore of images with given size such as for VMs are
unaffected
